- It was debuted at the Portsmouth gig in January. To my knowledge they've played it at every gig since then.
- It's more than likely existed in recorded form for several months, maybe even since last year. Glassjaw is tied up in some undisclosed label business and has been for some time. New music has been primarily delayed because they're willing to sacrifice a few fleeting fans so that they can release in on their own terms and promote it at their own leisure.
- It's clearly not a soundboard recording. The break in the middle is but that lasts for about 30 seconds.
- Glassjaw is like the beatles to me. I'm entirely biased as to whether it's critically good or not but shit sends shivers down my spine and i could give a fuck whether some dork interning at pitchfork thinks it's a 4.8 or whatever.
